Decorate To Celebrate - Anything Goes!

Happy Wednesday!!!

Oh, boy! have we had some changes over at

Decorate To Celebrate!

All good, but one very sad (sniff, sniff)...

In case you haven't heard,

all of the challenges from here on out are

Anything Goes!

AND you are allowed to enter cards as long as

they are 3D or Box Cards.

We also have a few new members or our DT!

I am excited to be working alongside

more talented ladies!

So be sure to check out their blogs

and start following them!

Now the sad news,

Lisa, my dear friend and DT sister,

has decided to step down as Co-Host and will no longer

be on our team :(

I will miss her tremendously!

But we press forward and create on, right?!?!

Here is my project:

I am a little late on getting Birthday gifts to

my Mom and SIL, but I finally finished them!

A few years ago, my good friend gave

me a Flower Pot Pen Bouquet

and I LOVED it!

They are proudly displayed in my kitchen

and I ALWAYS know where a pen is :)

So I thought this would be a perfect gift to make and give!

It was SO EASY!!!

I just went to Hobby Lobby and bought

some cute plastic flowers, stem tape, rocks, and the metal pots.

I also bought a super cute paper pack from

Fancy Pants Designs called "ParkBench"

LOVE it!!!

Most everything was 50% off and if it wasn't

I used my 40% coupon.

So basically I made two of these for

SUPER CHEAP!!!

I cut the tag (and shadow) from Elegant Edges and

stamped "be happy" with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

The stamp comes from Studio G and I am

sure I picked it up at JoAnn's for $1.

I added an Enamel Dot from Recollections

and hot glued the tag to a craft stick.

I added some black and white chevron paper strips

around the pot to add just a little bit more embellishment.

I think they turned out SO CUTE!!!

Here are some more pics...

I hope that you will join us over at the new

Decorate To Celebrate

for our first Anything Goes challenge!

Thanks for checkin' in!!!
